Visa and health surcharge way more than other G7 countries - hope our new government addresses this ASAP -
New analysis from the @royalsociety shows just how high UK visa costs for researchers are compared to upfront costs for similar visa routes in 13 other countries. Here, we take a look at how the UK compares to countries in the G7 included in the analysis šā¤µļø 1/5

Important and simple point here, that human embryos do in fact make tails and these are then regressed during development ... this is apparent in any human embryo atlas - agree this title is misleading.
The work heralded @Nature as āOn the genetic basis of tail-loss evolution in humansā has a number of issues that question the headline and make the conclusion misleading 1/n

How this latest policy aligns with the UK as a Life Sciences superpower is hard imagine, as is the costs of visas etc for international post-doctoral researchers and families - another UK government own goal.
International students in the 2021/22 academic year contributed Ā£41.9 billion to the UK economy. Even when accounting for dependants and other costs, international students are a huge net contributor to the UK economy. Every 11 non-EU students generates Ā£1mĀ worth of net economic impact for the UK economy. I hope someone in The Home Office did the economics on this!

Thanks Madeline ! - we are really keen to develop human organoid based research - this is part of the School of Life Sciences open PI recruitment - aiming to make 40 + new appointments over the next 5 years
Really great PI opportunity at the University of Dundee: a thriving developmental and cell biology community with excellent resources (including stem cell facility!) and fantastic colleagues (including @katestorey27 and @LizMillerCU). Deadline November 21st!
